Dr. Daniel Amen - 5 Habits Destroying Your Brain
Summary:

1. Care about your brain health. It is insane to care about looks more than brain.

2. Do not let your thoughts control you. Examine your thoughts: are they valid/true?

3. Avoid social media addiction and the cycle of dopamine addiction.

4. Comparing yourself with more successful others with bring unhappiness.

5. Do not postpone your happiness until you achieve your goals. Live in the present.

6. Have balance in your goals for Health, Spirituality (purpose/meaning), Work, and Relationships. By being balanced you avoid burnout.

7. Avoid undue anxiety. But some anxiety is necessary to avoid doing wrong things.

8. Stanford study found the people who live longest are the conscientious people, that is the people who show up on time for their call of duty.

9. The same study show people who live longest are not the happiest people or the "don't worry be happy" people, or the constantly worrying people.

10. "Everything in moderation" is a terrible idea because it implies it is ok to do harmful inappropriate stuff in moderation. Why would you knowingly engage in bad things such as unhealthy food, alcohol, lack of exercise, lack of sleep, and other bad things, even in moderation?

11. Overweight people have less healthy brain.

12. Alcohol and drugs are poison to brain.
